Yesterday, upon discovering (to my dismay) that Briggs Library is severely lacking in regular adult fiction, I ventured upstairs to the kids/young adult fiction and picked out five books I remember loving when I was 12 or so:
1. Lily's Crossing, by Patricia Reilly Giff
2. The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle, by Avi
3. My Louisiana Sky, by Kimberly Willis Holt
4. The Watsons Go to Birmingham-1963, by Christopher Paul Curtis
5. Our Only May Amelia, by Jennifer L. Holm
I practically had to pretend to be an elementary ed. major in order to avoid suspicion from the nosy check-out girl, but it's been very, very worth it so far.
